How do you take your franchise event to the next level?

Franchisees have to take valuable time out of their week to attend a conference. That means the entire event needs to provide value.

It's more than just a nice cocktail networking hour. We've worked with several franchises to transform their typical conference into an inspiring event that franchisees can't wait to attend.

training-sessions
Training sessions.Your franchisees are attending to get the latest information to help their businesses. Help them gain this knowledge in interesting and engaging ways through roundtables and other agenda formats (rather than just the 3-hour keynote!)
strategic-agendas
Strategic agendas.Attendees aren't the same as they were in 2019. The same old sessions don't work as well, and agendas are being changed as a result. We'll help you identify the best way to structure your event for maximum engagement.
gamification
Gamification.Business owners are naturally competitive - why not tap into that spirit by incorporating gamification throughout your event? Whether it's games or trivia, your attendees will bond and learn while competing (bring your sponsors in too!)
ryder-1
Sponsor engagement.Your sponsors and partners are vital to your business. Give them more than just a tabletop. Try incorporating different opportunities for sponsors to engage with franchisees - in a way that franchisees actually like (how about a ride-along in your sponsor's truck?)
activations
Activations.Every session has an opportunity to engage your franchisees in ways that improve their business. We've seen great success with incorporating marketing or partner booths into sessions, where franchisees can see and interact with things like signage for their business.
networking-1
Elevated networking.Networking is one of the most important aspects of any conference. For your franchisees, it's a way for them to not only meet each other but learn best business practices. Facilitate introductions between your top franchisees and those looking to grow to help these conversations flourish.
